Friendly & Energetic Teacher

Relative density, or specific gravity, is the ratio of the density (mass of a unit volume) of a substance to the density of a given reference material. Specific gravity usually means relative density with respect to water. The term "relative density" is often preferred in modern scientific usage.

It is simply the ratio of density of substance taken to the density of reference substance. R.D = Density of substance / Density of reference substance. Specific gravity = Density of subs. / Density of water. Water is reference in this case.

Relative density (or) specific density, is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a given reference material. If a substance's relative density is less than one then it is less dense than the reference; if greater than one then it is denser than the reference. If the relative density is exactly one then the densities are equal; that is, equal volumes of the two substances have the same mass. Relative Density = Density of the substance/ Density of air.

Relative density = (mass of the substance in air at 20 Deg C)/(mass of equal volume of water at 20 Deg C). It is used as a reference to compare densities of different materials when all these densities are available at different temperatures.
